Omaha, NE

Kevin Costner could be just the push fans of Rosenblatt Stadium need to help keep their park. When talking to the Omaha World Herald, Jason Smith (who is an organizer for the Save Rosenblatt campaign) said, “Short of Babe Ruth, he’s kind of the ultimate superstar as far as baseball.” The group is hoping Costner will appear in a commercial designed to sway voters towards saving the stadium and renovating it rather than tearing it down for a rebuild in the NoDo area.

Whether the group actually gets Costner or they find some college and pro players to help with the cause, the group has to move fast, as the official NCAA response to a stadium downtown is expected next month.
